...to boldly go...where the sun doesn't shine

starting at 8 AM today...I'll be having a lot of these...

followed by a few of these...



I'm following the "prep" regime for the colonoscopy I'll do tomorrow...
I've already delved too deep into that subject ["Oh Goodie"post...]
so I won't reiterate that all here...

I'm on a 24 hour clear liquid "fast"[black coffee is OK...Sprite...]
and of course...H2O... in copious amounts...
I'm also working at finishing the chores...
that I've been letting slide...
'cause I know I won't be worth shooting...
for quite a while... after the anesthetic...
if my previous experience is any indication...

so I'll be swilling water...
and doing chores...
until it's time for...



the laxatives...
[oh, be still my heart...]

once that starts...along with MORE water...
I'll be spending even MORE time...
well...HERE...



which is pretty dicey since mine isn't really secured to the floor...
[that was the whole reason for the bath redo...
that hasn't happened yet...]
I just hope there are no earthquakes...
or things could get ugly... and quick !

"it will be a good feeling when this is all behind me..."
[wait...that didn't come out quite right...
hmmmmm... hold on... no...I'd never !...I mean...
what kind of person wants to be the butt...[*snort*]
uuh...I mean...the point of their own joke ?]

not me...

I would never stoop to "bathroom humor"...

just for a post...

so what I meant to say was...

"I'll be glad to put an end to all this..."
[oh crap...that's worse...]

OK...OK... I got it now...

here it is...

"I'm actually looking forward [clever, huh?]to next Tuesday...
[I KNOW it's Election Day...I don't care...
I vote by mail...& have already done my duty... *sigh*]
when I get to go to the dentist for a crown prep..."



[see how I shifted your focus, up... to my mouth...?
sometimes...I amaze even me...]

I think it involves a post implant...
[and the 6 Advil days that will follow it...]
I know I'll get a "temp"...
[that will probably fall off at some point...
causing an 8 Advil moment...]
and need to return in 10 days or so...
for my gold crown to be fitted...
[just so we can wake that nerve back up...]
that's costing me nearly $800.00...
and I'm sure there will be at least one anxiety attack...
[hmmm... maybe this is almost as bad...]

what a pain in the butt...

oh, wait... that's the other one...


"...say goodnight, Gracie"...

"goodnight, Gracie..."


postscript...

I just found out that my dentist's appointment is Monday....
NOT Tuesday... as I had thought...
11 AM to boot...

I am just SOOO frick'en thrilled...
